3rd summon [text]
There doesn't seem to be any understanding of manners on this boat. Twice now I've had people abruptly disconnect on me in the middle of a stirring discussion of how utterly imperfect their grasp of reality1 or revenge2 is.
Did your mothers never teach you it is impolite to hang up on a djinni?
If not that, then someone must have taught you it was unwise, surely.
Though there are beacons of hope amidst the sea of rude. A lupophobic, a well-mannered compulsive talker, and an anti-environmentalists who mocks the sanctity of marriage. 3 They have potential and there are sure to be others.
1 - This involved mock indignation for the sake of magicians. It could hardly be a serious sentiment as it came from an otherwise acceptable young woman. If she truly took offense, then my primary concern becomes the state of sanity that any on this boat possess.
2 - This being a disagreement about vengeance and patience. All I recall is something about claiming to be a God. He could be any magician, as I have known many to make that claim. They all end up the same way: Squished under some afrit or another.
3 - Being an affront to many mainstream religions simply by existing, I have a special place in my essence for anyone else that contravenes the religious norm.

In that respect, you remind me of a certain boy I knew. He worked too hard than was good for him. A cruise like this would do him some good also.
1 - The list is too vast to properly comprehend or make easily available.

1 - Do I really need to explain that one? Your imagination is probably filling in the gaps as I speak.

[And that's really all she has to say on that. A necromancer is not a fit standard to judge a day by.]
